To characterize the ability of the D2000 Cartridge in combination with the Optia SPD Protocol to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients admitted to the ICU.
Device: Marker Therapeutics D2000 Cartridge (D2000) for use with the Spectra Optia® Apheresis System (Optia SPD Protocol)
Subjects will receive one treatment per day with the D2000 Cartridge for up to 4 hours (treatment cycle) for up to seven (7) days. Treatment may extend beyond 7 days, up to 14 days total, if deemed necessary and useful by the principal investigator (PI). Additional cartridges may be used, if needed, to achieve the maximum daily treatment duration of 4 hours. Each day, before initiating the treatment cycle, pre-treatment chemistry and hematology, coagulation status, and disease severity scores (SOFA, APACHE II) will be collected. Then, immediately following the therapy on each treatment day, post-therapy measurements will also be collected.
Study Exit. Subjects will be exited from the study after the Day 28 follow-up visit which will occur 28 days after Study Day 1. Subjects will be included in the study for a total of 28 days. Subjects may also choose to discontinue at any time or conclude participation at the discretion of the PI or the subject's treating physician.
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age ≥ 18 years old
- Admitted to ICU
- Diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 with any one of the following conditions:
1. Early acute lung injury (ALI)/early acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS);
or
2. Severe disease, defined as:

authorized by the IRB, emergent plasma adsorption with the D2000 cartridge may be
initiated prior to consent.
